ME TRANSMITTE SURSUM, CALEDONI!
I like your comment more than the video summary. |

Yes actually I've realized that this video applies to earlier drafts of ACTA anyways. The final draft has cut down quite a bit so that it applies mostly to commercial scale infringement. It is still a large concern though but I don't quite understand it in its current form so here's a Reddit post explaining it. He definitely seems like he knows what he is talking about. I've read the final version of ACTA, here's what you need to know about it. : politics VERY LONG, post continues in the comments. |

Anyone else noticed that all the upload sites are now cracking down hardcore on illegal files? |

A goal without a plan is just a wish |

I don't see why people are crying and acting like they need to lay down belly up because this is happening. SOPA was defeated; this will be too. Didn't people think SOPA was gonna pass and ruin everything? Well, they were wrong. This is why pessimism looks pathetic and weak, not smart or strong. |

SOPA didn't pass only BECAUSE people thought it WOULD pass. |

I think this is all just a sign that the government and corporations are finally beginning to realize how powerful the internet really is. They're starting to attack it because they're taking it more seriously, as a threat to their control over the national dialogue. The attempts won't work though. People are used to their free internet and will keep revolting, even or especially if a bad law passed and the average person noticed the changes. At least I would assume. |

If someone's got a kidney infection and their intent is to pray it away, I'm going to suggest they come up with more practical treatment. If I told them to see a doctor, they might reply "What do doctor's know?" but if I ask them what they plan to accomplish with their current mode of thought, it gets them thinking. |

Yes but you're acting like a new law (this one and others after it) will be defeated just by magic. People have to DO something for bills to be defeated. |

The conundrum appears to be that people who are asking how we should take down this new act, and how we are supposed to protect our liberty, are being construed as pessimists. We are not pessimists, we're asking for people to start thinking up more effective tactics. That is all. |
